Dear Patient,

Use papaya and mangoes, apples in his regular diet;
Give him oats instead of roti;
Give overnight figs soaked in water (both);
Kindly use a scoop of Benefiber mixed in his milk.
If despite all these measures you feel he is still constipated then give 10ml of syrup lactulose at night as well till constipation is relieved.
When your child tries to poop brief both his knees to stomach to help stool come out. Apply lots of vaseline to his rectum to avoid bleeding and pain.
